Can someone explain why this bill prevents IVF? So OK it says that the embryo in the petri dish or whatever is a human. Is the point that therefore other various laws apply to it and so it can't be implanted? Or is it other parts of the process are now forbidden like the freezing others have mentioned?
In tech, for the last few decades, the goal of so many startups is not to be the next Apple/Google/Facebook but to create something that Apple/Google/Facebook want to buy.
Yeah unfortunately not taking a buy out often means one of the Big Five making their own version of whatever you're doing / buying out your competitor, and then bullying you out of the market. A bleak possibility for start ups
IMO the default should be one of the text wrapping options.
Some version of the phrase has been around for a couple years at least
All makes perfect sense, thanks for explaining!
My experience is that duolingo is a good component of language learning but is bad as a whole package. I have that, a flash card app, daily word games, and a YouTube channel for a children's TV network in my language. None of them individually would teach me the language, but collectively they reinforce each other and fill in many gaps. Alas, neither innovative language nor lingodeer have the language I want at the moment.
KG is also in two other bands, he has his own shit going on
*how do you own colossal order, colossal order
There is an addendum to his plan that might have made it make sense. If he had said something like "I'm giving the universe the chance to make better decisions", suddenly having half as many people means (probably a little more than) half resource consumption, half the carbon emission, and more time to figure out and implement solutions to these problems. I'm not sure how the housing crisis would pan out, I expect it would get worse. It also makes more sense that he destroys the stones after "I gave the universe its chance, now the ball is in its court".
This also solves the doubling resource problem. His motives are to pressure people to change their ways. Giving them more stuff might cut hunger, but you'll just have that hunger again in 50 years and we'd probably increase carbon output to boot, and destroy more environment to get these doubled resources.
I don't know enough about the stones to say whether "infinite resources" or whatever cheat code would have worked, but they certainly could have dropped a line that it wasn't possible, or that it would cause more problems than it solved (how does chemistry even work in this universe? If nothing ever gets used in reactions then the chemistry that makes our bodies work is borked)
But anyway, as the Russos did not put this line in, the premise was flawed
With the way multiverses are so in right now, more likely he'll reappear as Hawk from Titans
Different genres I guess but
Simon Tatham Puzzle Collection
Stitches (with links to more games, don't think there's a central site)
If I understand correctly we can't do it to anything new because the ratios in the atmosphere got messed up after nuclear weapon testing in the 1950s. Anything breathing after that time can't be properly compared with this technique. Maybe that will change though.
I use DuoCards for flash cards. The word games are FOCLACH (basically wordle in Irish), litreach (guess words from people saying them in 3 Irish dialects) and seafóid (basically Waffle in Irish). The games are all browser based apps so not in app stores, but DuoCards is.
ETA while DuoCards has built in flash cards, I usually make my own based on the words I learn from all the other sources, and get the translation and grammar details from teanglann.ie, tearma.ie, or nualeargais.ie
They also rescued Ruto, so must have finished Jabu Jabu on that basis too
In practice, this makes these networks very resilient to fraud.
Could like, 51% of the owners just coordinate to kind of, do a fraud?
Sybil attacks sound like the kind of thing you're talking about. I don't have the expertise to go into it, but one person (or a group) creates lots of nodes and uses that influence to do bad things to the network, potentially including fraud. Or as you suggest, legitimate users can just coordinate to do whatever they wanted (see ethereum vs ethereum classic if you want a chuckle).
I want to make a note that the networks are only resilient to a specific type of fraud - people trying to enter data in a way that doesn't meet the criteria of the system. That's all well and good for wallet to wallet transactions, but when you have transactions going off chain (like buying something, trading for other kinds of coins, doing anything with crypto exchanges), there are still plenty of other kinds of fraud that are possible and happen all the time, because while the chain is fairly trustworthy, nothing else about the system is. Most kinds of fraud involve doing things that technically you have permission to do, because you lied to people to access their password or promised them bigger returns in the future or missold a product or service etc and all of that is still possible under crypto. In some cases crypto is more vulnerable to these things because of having no central authority or regulator or laws or whatever.
Pikmin 4. It's real good. I was always more interested in the environmental puzzles than the combat so the lower difficulty suits me just fine. I got to credits yesterday, then ::: spoiler turns out there's a whole extra pikmin 1 campaign in there and seems like at least one more area in the main campaign. Must save Oatchi! :::
Whatever is being done, it isn't enough. Lots of countries are lying about their carbon emissions and it's basically the worst it's ever been. Quick intro video
